>>11872074I think this is what you're talking about. Yeah, not good if the card gets dropped and lands on the face of its blister.
Posted this in the godzilla thread, it's a Mechagodzilla themed Nissan GT-R by Jada Toys.
>>11872139The whole front tilts forward to reveal the engine.
>>11872143The interior has detailed dash panel and a roll cage.
>>11872146The spoiler can be slid forward off the mounts to allow the trunk to be opened slightly.
Looks like they're making a movie based on Mattel's Matchbox carsTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xfqITrMDcI
>>11871928I just don't think there is really an organic way to make a movie based on Matchbox cars, you could do a movie on the creation of the toys maybe, but nothing really in universe. Hot Wheels at least has an angle where it can be a racing film, but with the whacky over-the-top designs. Basically take all the racing sequences from the Speed Racer movie and just do that with Hot Wheels cars.Honestly that's probably why they're doing this first because even if it turns out to be a really good movie, it's going to be over shadowed by the inevitable Hot Wheels film. This is probably a bit of a test bed for that.>this is basically an action heist film like the fast and furious moviesHonestly I do think they missed the mark by doing The Fast and The Furious, but for kids.
>>11871952*by not doing.
>>11861947why not Hot Wheels? doesn't Mattel own Hot Wheels, too? didn't they have to BUY Matchbox to put them out of competition (but still maintain the name because... um... I still don't know why) or am I remembering that all wrong? I'm too lazy to look it upmatch-box implies smoking, that's what the boxes of matches were for. even as a kid I thought that was an awful name for a product
>>11871972Mattel bought Matchbox because the company that created Matchbox went bankrupt and sold off the license and tooling, the company that bought it ended up suffering financially and by the 90s needed a buyer. Honestly if Mattel hadn't bought Matchbox they'd have probably gone the way of Corgi.As for why they're making this first, like I said here >>11871952 I think they know that making a Hot Wheels film first would kill any chance of a Matchbox movie succeeding. They probably want to do this first to make money off the brand before going in for the big hit with Hot Wheels. That said the appeal of Matchbox is the more realistic styling of the cars, as opposed to Hot Wheels more exotic aspects. The Matchbox movie can focus on action centred around real-world vehicles, the Hot Wheels can be more fantastical.
>>11872008dang that's interesting. and I totally see the logic of doing the worse-movie (?? what a concept??) first.if they were really clever, they could do a third movie where it was Matchbox VS Hot Wheels lol

>>11871883It was the lot of 13 figures for $150 i posted about the other thread. The vehicles were also only $10 each so im pretty pleased. Its only really skeletor and beastman I'm having to pay over retail for. The filmation cartoon is my first love so ill probably be done once I get them all. Don't really care for she-ra and the horde either.
>>11871784As a total casual to MOTU, don't agree with your and some of the other takes here, like the dust joke mentioned above. Would agree some stuff could be cut. All the roommate scenes, especially the crying at the Notebook could have been cut. Adam could have complained about the date with a co-worker.Some of what you are asking for, was done, like the HR conflict resolution scene.The prison motivational speech could have been a bit more like that and bit less of what we got.But casual normies who did see the movie (and largely their first, non-meme exposure to MOTU) and saw in theaters, like me, were already talking about Adam and David Corenswet's version of Superman as being similar - kinder, gentler (non-asshole/non-grim-dark) and in particular, not quippy hero.I would agree MOTU doesn't come off as an action comedy. The entire comic store scene and cops arrest wasn't that funny and could have been trimmed or re-written.The movie needed to be more "Free Guy" but instead gave "Ready Player One" - which both involved the same writer, with different directors. It could have been more "Honor Among Thieves" humor instead of Nee humor.Although to be honest, I'm a bit tired of talking about (or reading others complaints about) the movie, after the fact. It is what it is.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>11871681I've noticed that things like Game of Thrones have also plagued media by making people think the only way a story is good is if a ton of important characters die. I see this all the time and have friends who say "but nothing happened" if the movie/show doesn't kill off a major character in a shocking way.
>>11872042I blame Joss Whedon for that personally. A lot can be blamed on him actually.
>>11871877Did you make the dio or order it? Something like that is what I need on my desk for proper photo posting in here again.

I've always wondered why despite Evangelion getting a lot of merch and being popular series there isn't really a consistent Evangelion General.Is it because there's too much crossover with other threads to the point that a dedicated thread feels redundant? is it because there's no anon that's dedicated enough to keep making a new thread every time? is it that Evangelion is inherently limited? the generals I'm familiar with (MOTU, Marvel, Transformers) Not only have dozens or hundreds of characters but also different generations or alternate takes.Anyway, to not make this thread just a meta discussion, seems the Robo-Duo TV Eva 02 got an updated and painted prototype recently, for a moment I was worried it wouldn't happen at all, so a good sign for sure.
>>11868269>not finalGood, the shoulders are too narrow and the head is oversized. Looks good besides that.
>>11868229>>11868233>You know the rebuild designs look so much better with the TV colors. I wish anno would have kept them.I made this years ago (so excuse the poor quality).I tried to get an idea of how the Rebuild Evas would look with the TV colours (still forever frustrated we never got to see a blue 00).
>>11868269I need it man...>>11868302This is true tho.
>>11868490I actually did the same years ago. Mine was never finished, it looks like shit, but you get the idea.
>>11868293None of which will be worth it, that's my prediction.
What is your opinion on them?Personally as a child I literally never used stickers. Like I collect some however lever actually stick them on anything. I mean the logic is very basic if I place a sticker on something I lose it. And where would I put the sticker on? I have to make 1 choice and only 1 choice.I think I placed some on things when I was a small child however I remember basically never using the Pokemon stickers that did come in the Pokemon guide book.What was your childhood experience with stickers?I did look up digimon stickers and because they come in random booster packs/blind bags (extremely exploitative) kids end up with duplicates and feel less hesitant to use the stickers on things.Of course the print on demand stickers are basically unlimited and excluded from this comparison.
I put my stickers in a scrapbook.
Sticker trading is super big in Japan right now
>>11871640
>>11866364>What was your childhood experience with stickers?I stuck them on my wooden headboard on my childhood bed. they were from trading card packs so it was maybe like, doubles, or there were cards and stickers, I forget, but I remember I didn't feel like I was "wasting" them by sticking 'em. more like adding to the art gallery.sorry no pics of the headboard, that was a long time before cameras everywhere. if I could go back in time and see which stickers I had, that might be cool to do. I remember I had the cool race cars, at least
Is there a better 1/12 swordsman than this guy?

>>11871850damn, you got the bike too. Too expansive for me, unfortunately.
>>11871861i got two, hobbygenki sent me an extra one cause one of the foot pedals were missing.
>>11871900I wish SHF would make a FF7 line with the classic visual

>>11870527its a cool paintjob but I'm gonna pass on a $120 zaku
>>11870531the first one they released for Ayre does not even turn into the MA modeimo, those were just quick cashgrabs, not really worth it with how much they are missing if you are an AC6 fan

>>11870837They didn't redo the head gem to make it more yellow.
>>11871058hammer bitch flopped really hard compared to every other figure in the line
>>11870993Gotta be the most boring character designs I've ever seen.
>>11871597Going to look amazing in glossy black plastic though.
>>11871597Agreed. It's why even though I like JJK, I really can't bring myself to buy action figures of them. I got Team Gojo at least as Figuarts Zeros since they come with really cool effects, but even those are kind of a dark spot in my collection.
Last thread was fun. Let's do it again.Pitch your dream licensed toyline.>Normal Mode mode: Proper waves of at least four figures>Hard Mode: Playsets or Dioramas for each wave>Dante Must Die mode: Accessories, Build a Figure, and/or Sidekick figures for each toy
>>11869965I hate gamers so much!
>>11871022That's a fun idea. I'd love for actual, giant, 1:12 scale Colossi, but I know that would be prohibitively expensive. Mighty Max style is a great compromise.

>>11871266>>1187129414 inches tall at a minimum, it worked for the Inhumanoids.
>>11865593Is this for real an AI generated advert for a figure?? How is it possible to be so lazy to do this when you can just take a photo of the physical product
>>11871748I hope you're trolling, otherwise you are the stupidest motherfucker on the planet.
>>11871759You are obviously just a jealous hater.
>>11871778Calm your tits sperg, I wouldn't be making these kind of bait posts if reactions like these were even a tad bit harder to trigger. Admittedly though, 80% of the site is absolutely brimming with retards, so I don't really blame you for using the least amount of assumptions to conclude I am one when that's par on the course for every board now. The OP was in all likelihood made in hopes of attracting NECAnon himself kek
>>11871790Good job admitting you're nothing but a troll.
Remember the Genesis cartridge dioramas? Now we're getting PS1 dioramas. Awful timing too.
I hate how boring they make the inside of the consoles look. The Genesis was like that too.
The figures look better than the Sega ones, but having to work with square play space seems to have made the actual dioramas look worse.
>>11867938I remember playing as the nigger with wheel arms. My cousins hated when I came over because I would scream the whole time I was him. Seemed fitting. I’d certainly be screaming if my arms were attached to two giant wheels while rockets were being fired at me. I also liked the tornado chick.
They look better and more thought out than the Genesis ones. Like, Street Fighter? Really??>t. Nintenchad
If nu-LEGO were to get its filthy satanic paws on a PlayStation license and do a diorama similar to this one, the set would probably only have 3 or 4 minifig characters tops (all which look like toddlers with down syndrome) and make it a bloated abomination at $299.99
I have this guy, from Bandai's 30 Minute line, and his red visor/front of his helmet keeps slipping loose. It has a rectangular tab that goes into that slot in hus forehead. I think I remember someone saying that applying certain substances to tabs and pegs can increase friction and help them stay in place? After drying, so the piece isn't actually glued in.Can anyone confirm? Are there extra steps?
>>11863320>more shit like this please.30 Minutes Label.is four lines, Missions and Fantasy (this guy is Fantasy) tend to get posted to /mrg/, and Sisters and Preference tend to go in Busou Shinki and Friends
>>11862154I thought this was a Halo Elite from the thumbnail.
>>11862154I have this guy too and the same issue.I'm saving my fix for when I paint him. Thinking a shiny metallic red for the armor, and something a bit more ruddy for the skin tone.
>>11863320>>11863356The knock off terminators they released were pretty cool

>>11871229It will be a downgrade for sure, furry/kemono designs rarely translate well from illustrations to sculpt, especially on action figures or plamo (statueshit is somewhat better in that regard). I accept that her fig won't be on-model but I hope that she still stays as cute at least. Keister Bunny's sculpt reveal was a huge disappointment, even with the art's complexity already signaling poor transition I still think they could have done better than this: >>11860757
>>11871258Yeah, that's my point. I was disappointed with how Keyaki translated Shion's sculpt from her artwork, but am pleased with how Olivia from the same line and artist looks. It's 50/50, and we won't know anything until we see it in 3D.
